To understand the hydrologic and biogeochemical controls on the age and recalcitrance of dissolved organic matter (DOM) found in stream waters, we combined hydrometric monitoring along a topographic gradient from ridge to channel with isotopic (C-13 and C-14) and spectroscopic (UV and C-13 nuclear magnetic resonance) analyses of soil and stream water samples in a small coastal watershed in California. With increasing discharge, dissolved organic carbon concentrations increased from 2.2 to 10.9 mg C L-1, Delta C-14 values increased from -125 to +120 parts per thousand, delta C-13 values decreased from -24 to -29 parts per thousand, C:N ratios increased from 6.5 to 15.4, and specific UV adsorption increased from 1.4 to 3.8 L mg C-1 m(-1). These changes in DOM composition are consistent with a shift in source from old and recalcitrant soil organic matter (OM) sources found in deep soil horizons to young and relatively fresh OM sources found in the surface horizons. Results from this study suggest upland soils of the watershed become DOM production limited as indicated by a seasonal depletion and chemical shift in soil DOM, whereas highly productive soils in the hollow act as a near-infinite DOM source. Hydrologic connectivity of this DOM-rich riparian source region to the stream ultimately constrains DOM export, and the stream DOM composition reflects the combined influence of soil biogeochemical cycling of OM and hydrologic routing of water through the landscape.
